Workshops & Courses
Workshops and courses are created and facilitated by staff and volunteers with personal experience of emotional distress. They are an opportunity to think about and understand yourself better, and to develop skills and resources to support your emotional wellbeing.
We welcome ideas for new workshops as well as which ones you'd like to see repeated.
